I’m not voting for Rudy in the primaries, but if he is elected I will vote for him in the general.

With Rudy I may get some of the things I want, with Hillary I know I will not only get zero but a painful asskicking for 4-8 years.

Her judicial appointments alone will be enough to make us run screaming in the night. For those of you who think you will be “teaching the GOP a lesson”, that’s short sighted and if you think it will succeed, it’s contrary to history.

Did the GOP and conservatives in general capitulate to the “Perot Revolution” after it helped usher in BC? No, they were widely criticized and most were embarrassed after the realized what they wrought and feebly shuffled back into the tribe. Too late though,their damage was done.

Unfortunately, I don’t hold out much hope for these single issue voters to learn much from history nor have the foresight to contemplate the results of their actions. If anything, they are even more resolute and blinded to all but what they see directly in front of them.

To continuously win at the ballot box a party’s voters must not only have good perspective but good peripheral vision as well.

Just the opposite is true. You're FAR more likely to get what you don't want under Giuliani, who has a far better chance of getting liberal legislation passed than Hillary Clinton does.

Meanwhile, electing Giuliani assures Democrats gain seats and control Congress for, probably, a decade. While Hillary would set the stage for Republicans gaining back Congress.
